It has been so wonderful having Grams here. While she'll deny
it up and down, she's been a huge help, keeping the kids entertained
with crafts, scavenger hunts, doll and airplane games,
reading to them for Quiet Time and/or bedtime, keeping the laundry
and dishes clean and on and on! In the pictures above, Grams is making
paper airplanes with Logan and coloring. They have plans to make lots
of valentines cards too!

The older kids (Logan and Delenn) have both come down with illness/colds --
and have had several miserable nights in a row. For example, on Friday
night Daddy was up with Delenn for hours as she screamed and writhed
around in pain. Last night (Saturday) he held Logan's head as Logan
heaved (but never threw up). Both kids have runny noses, but in
general are doing well during the day. Anyway, back to Grams, she has
let both Mom and Dad sleep in and entertained the kids for hours in
the morning. We sure appreciate having her here.
